Over two days, Sunset/Sunrise is part of an all-inclusive deal where you have the sole fishing rights on this privately owned lake. This tour is all about being alone with the beautiful scenery and fishing the lake when the fish are most actively feeding. With this trip you will be met in Zermatt during the early afternoon and together we will travel up the mountain on the mountain lift system (funicular train and cable car). To reach the lake there is a scenic 15 minute hike along a mountain path and, once at the lake, we can start fishing straight away to become familiar with the technique required and location of the fish. Later, we will take a break to drop off our overnight gear and to enjoy dinner at Fluhalp restaurant, a mountain hut just a few minutes’ walk away.

After our feed we return to the lake for the golden hour when the sun sets on the Matterhorn, the lake clears, and the fish feed off the surface before the light disappears from the mountains. Once the sun is down we will head back to discuss the days fishing, relax and bed down for the night (or enjoy the atmosphere a little longer, it’s up to you!)

In the morning we will have an early breakfast and then walk back down to the lake. During this session we can really put into practise all the techniques and strategies discussed the night before whilst fishing alone as the sun rises, making the most spectacular views.

We should be finished up at the lake for about 12 noon. I encourage that every tour is tweaked and tailored to the person or group on the day. Timings are regularly altered to suit my clients’ wishes and changes in the weather.
